It's been a long, long time. What I'd give to follow a team like the Raiders who are fairly well coached, tough and in nearly every game. Imagine that! It shouldn't be that hard to have a team like that for a few years of a decade. What would your imaginary good team be like? Mine would most...

The amount of criticism on here towards him atm is :crazy With _this_ team he has in fact led us to our best start in club history (as of last week when we were 7 - 5). People want him to change the roster how? Drop Lolo for Kev? Play McIlwrick? Start Reynolds over Marshall? Move MCK to the...

??? Lawrence kind of hobbled off a bit at the end but that's all I saw.

Is the reffing really that bad? The Klein call last week aside, has it been any worse than other years? Are the commentators blowing it out of proportion? The refs are somewhat doing their job, enforcing the rules. When they don’t do it, commentators complain. Now when they do, commentators...

Ranking them was harder than I thought, and there is a clear distance between the best two and the rest. 1 (BEST) Sheenius* 2 Ivan 3 JT 4 Mick Potter 5 Wayne Pearce 6 Lamb *Sheens is a clear #2 if this resurgence under Cleary continues. JT got us playing better defense than Potter and...

How'd they go today? I only saw the first half. Thought Lolo kinda disappeared after 20 minutes. Did he reappear in the second half? Marsters and Felise only came on around 30 mins from what I could tell. They do much in the second? I think there's a lot of potential with those two.

*CAUTION: EXTREME TIGERS GEEKERY CONTAINED IN THIS THREAD* I imagine some of you must watch the press conferences / pressers uploaded on the official site. Like myself, I'm sure some of you marvel at Elijah Taylor's absolute calm in the midst of media sensationalism, not to mention his accent...

Report: Roosters worried about star recruit's punctuality He may make split-second decisions on the field that leave his opponents clutching at thin air, but off the field things could not be any more different for million-dollar man James Tedesco. In the wake of his signing a lucrative new...

**1) Justin Pascoe needs to find a shaver** It was clear to all in attendance that Pascoe hadn't shaved since earlier that morning, leading some on online forums to question whether his facial hair was suited to the club. On more than one occasion, posters linked his integrity to how...

Despite the clear size disadvantage, we've found plenty of ways to open them up. I don't think dropping the ball or not finishing sets off after every half break was part of the plan however. Our own worst enemies, once again. I think Taylor's substitution pattern has been better too but the...

One day I imagine this will all come out but the lack of depth we have in our club is a bit surprising. How we were over the salary cap is beyond me. Anyone else puzzled by this? I think about it and 1) we're paying a lot of money for Farah to be elsewhere and 2) we're also paying Sironen to be...

I've been a big supporter of this fella but time to cut bait. Fair donkum, he was the Panthers' best today. A number of times his poor kicking and passing relieved any pressure we'd built and his defence was as poor as it's ever been. After 4 years in first grade, I can't see him ever really...

I support the guy and the change of attitude he's brought to our club these last two years. He's overachieved this year ini. THIS IS NOT A TAYLOR BASHING THREAD. However, his tactics and selections have really confounded me at times. Can someone actually explain to me the reason for these...

Real random one I know but I'll be in Beijing for the next three weeks and want to catch the games. The internet is too slow here to stream on the app. Anyone ever watched a game here or know of bars that show NRL in Beijing? Any help much appreciated!

Much, much better performance from him yesterday. Not ground-breaking but something to build on and what he needs to deliver, at least, every week. 115m and 34 tackles iyw

For mine they were their own worst enemy. Nothing new. Robson was terrible on debut. Reminded me a bit of Matt Orford's efforts when he played with the Raiders a few years back. 7 missed tackles and a million dropped balls and penalties. Great to see Gavet back given all his troubles...

Taylor is a dud coach in many people's opinions. I think we get it already. :deadhorse: But who does everyone want to replace him with? Toovey? :smiley: Who is everyone's magic, fix-it-all replacement? \ \ I actually thought Payten was going to be the coach for this season but I guess he was...

we could as easily be 6-1 as we could 1-6. Easily could have lost to the Titans and the Eels game came down to the last 10. Could have snuck a result against the Warriors and should have got the Dogs and Raiders games. But instead, with just about the youngest team in the comp we're 3-4\...

A star is born

lol someone was going to anyway he's going to have the haters come out of the woodwork once more if he can't get us within 20 points of top 5 sides our attacking play has been awful for some time and our complete lack of discipline means we just can't hang with top sides atm. That starts with...
